March 30th is...

National no improper use of "like" day!

That can also extend to include no slang uses of "all", "yeah", or just "ya' know"s in general. I was aware of this plague before I started to go to school, but that just reinforced my feelings about it. As an Author, I am seriously peeved.

So, if you ever have time, please forward this blog post to all emails in your address book, with the following message: "I pledge to withhold from all manners of poor English for a single day, according to national no improper use of 'like' day, begun by Josephos Rex of The Author's Files." If you pledge something, that'll automatically ignite anyone's interest.

Cote Keller

My name here is Mr. Author, but some people call me Cote. I consider myself laconic in speech, Mere Christian in faith, and quasi-Randian, classically liberal, borderline libertarian, rule-of-law radical for federalism in politics. The purpose of these files is to expound what such a person believes and why.
